Spider-Man 2099: 1993


I was going to hold this till Halloween week. I know Spider-man 2099 wasn't a horror title but this sort of looks like it could have been the title to a horror book. I have a couple of them ready for that week but need at least 4 more.

Doom Patrol 1992


Benefactor Robby Reed of Dial B For Blog gave us this letterhead from his collection. It is from the 1992 run of DC's Doom Patrol series.

Lost In Space 1993


This letterhead is reminiscent of the opening sequence to the TV series that ran from 1965-1968. The series was published by Innovation and was written by Bill Mumy who played Will Robinson on the show. Also in the letters page from where I got the letterhead was a letter from Jonathan Harris who played Dr. Smith on the program. It was a very entertaining letters page to read...indeed. As you can see in the title the year the book came out was 1993. 25 years after the show was canceled and there was still enough fans to get a comic book series and a movie produced. Hopefully they will do another and even better movie one day soon.

Captain America 1994

I made a raid on the quarter bin at a local store yesterday and was surprised to find a 1994 issue of Captain America. The surprise to me was that they had gone back to the 1960's title of the page. I wasn't reading the book in 1994 so this went unnoticed by me.
You can see more about Captain America at my fan page called Let's Rap With Cap!

Captain Atom 1988



Now really shouldn't a letters page for a book about Captain Atom have been called Splitting the Atom?

Let's Rap With Cap 1969


Regular readers may know that I have shown this letterhead before. However, this was recently sent in by museum Benefactor Robby Reed. Thanks to his generosity this gives me a chance to cross promote and plug my newest site Let's Rap With Cap! Also I can put it on that site to promote this site.

I thought I had seen all of Daredevils letter page letterheads. Then I came across this letters page from the mid 1960's.
